Hey guys, after moving across the country, I’ve been able to return to coding recently and need some help.

As was requested in the Features section, I’ve got a plugin that will allow you to list the hours a business is open, by day. It will also show the current status of a business (open/closed) based on your server/WordPress time.

I need a couple of people to test it. It’s done and seems to work, but I wouldn’t recommend testing it on a real live site just yet.

Let me know if you’re interested by replying here.

Jeff,

Hoping to go live yet later this week, but that might still be a stretch. I have this data for a number of pre-loaded listings, so could test this with real data.

cheers,
Brian

Hi Jeff,

I can be one of testers if you like. Should I email you?

Hi Jeff, happy to test at http://goldroo.net/, my test site.
I can give you access too if you want it.

How is this handled in the back end when entering info? I have done this in my back end, similar output on the front to how you have it pictured.

If you guys want to test, it’s best to email me jeff at jeff rose dot ca, and I’ll email you the copy.

BoxPortable: GeoDirectory custom fields. Simple for now. It’s not as elegant as I’d like, but it does work. Love to hear any ideas or advice you have.

Thanks folks. I’ve sent the first version to 3 testers and will wait for their feedback.

I am done testing, the plugin works great and I think it’s a must have for directory sites. Thank you, Jeff!

Note that after activating plugin, you need to add the Business Hours widget via the widget library. I added it to GD Details Sidebar to have business hours displayed on the listing details page sidebar.

Can’t wait for the next version! I hope it matches the screenshot Jeff posted above. 🙂

Nope. The guys testing gave me a TON of awesome notes and found some real problems / annoyances, so I’m working on a new version to fix those issues and some others.

I’ll post when it’s ready. I may need another test, and will keep you in mind.
